Are you sure you're ready for this?"
Kuroko sighed at the question before turning to look at Mikoto once more. They were outside of a quaint little diner by the name of Joseph's, which Kuroko was assuming that it was someplace they often frequented before the incident took place.
"Of course," even as Kuroko stood tall, she couldn't quite keep the nervous lilt out of her voice. Though she knew this was the right thing to do, she was still scared of their possible reactions. After Mikoto-senpai briefly filled her in on her life, she now at least knew what Uiharu Kazari and Saten Ruiko looked like and her history with them.
What surprised her most was the knowledge that she was the one who essentially brought their group together being that this Uiharu Kazari and she had been friends the longest. This only served to steel her conviction in telling them the truth.
Their friendship must have been very important to me.
With that thought in mind, she was more than sure that she was doing the right thing. However, that didn't mean she wasn't nervous about it.
"I can do this, Senpai," she made sure to look Mikoto in the eye as those words passed her lips, "Please do not worry."
Mikoto frowned a little before releasing a soft breath. She took this time to look Kuroko over and her brows furrowed further when she noticed the slight, almost unnoticeable quivers wracking Kuroko's form. She bit lip to keep from commenting in fear that her pestering would push Kuroko away and instead chose to cross her arms before sighing again, "I'll go along with it if that's how you really feel."
